When it entered the PASL, the Monterrey Flash became Mexico's third team to be part of the US-based league, joining the Tijuana-based Toros Mexico[1] and Saltillo Rancho Seco. With the Toros not part of the re-branded Major Arena Soccer League, both Mexico-based teams were in the new Southern Division along with four teams based in Texas for 2014–15.
